Test Failed on theme while updating

[pabs11]

Hi

I can't help you sorry but I have exactly the same issue - had a forum offline for 2 years and am updating through, from 2.0.11 to current but can only go as far as 2.0.13 as I get the same template issue you get.

My failed test seems to be around a 'password' related script insertion, so I'm inclined to wait before updating.

I've emailed the template creator but no response as yet ( holidays don't help ).

Mine's a 'Greeny' template.

I can't even find the code snippet needing replacing in the listed template file ( not in file listed ), so not sure what's going there ( not a coder, as you can tell ).

Let me know if you get a response to your question though, if you could ?

What is the edit that is failing?

On mine, it's this : ( image attached )

OK, that is an edit that if not done correctly, you will probably be unable to login through your custom theme anymore.
I do not know the theme in question, but it may be fairly easy to do manually,
in which case you could just install the update and then upload the manually updated template to replace the old one.
Perhaps would be best to ask the theme author though if you need help with it.

OK....read that, thanks...then inspected all those files and the one the SMF system points to specifically but I can't find that code snippet, or even any of the various words in it, anywhere in index.template.php ( which is where it's pointing me to. ( using Notepad++ )

Code Select Expand

<input type="hidden" name="hash_passwrd" value="" />

Does the SMF failed test always point to the right spot / file ?

Yes. That is why with custom code, it is best to ask the theme author directly if you can not find the code required.

Or, it might be that your custom theme does not have the login box as part of it, which is why the system can not find the code it needs to edit.

Have emailed him a few days ago, but it's xmas etc, so he may be out of contact for one reason or another...

Oh, didn't come to think of that - in this case it is a possibility among others.

I can see code for various other forms but not an 'input' login type.

[pabs11]

( Excuse my untrained coding mind ) Could this be telling me where the login form or relevant code can be found ?

{

echo'
<li><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=login#forum"><i class="fa fa-login fa-fw"></i> ',$txt['login'],'</a></li>

        <li><a href="',$scripturl,'?action=register#forum"><i class="fa fa-register fa-fw"></i> ',$txt['register'],'</a></li>';

}

Those are links to separate login and register -pages. Do you have a login form visible on the forum index?

Do you mean on this page ?

url/directory/index.php#forum

[Aleksi "Lex" Kilpinen]

Yes. If you do not have a login form there, you are probably fine just going ahead with the update as is. ( The other edit to index.template is just a version number... )

When I log out of the forum there is a login form on that page.

I've found the form code needing replacing using the browser page source, however I can't locate it in the downloaded index.template.php file.

There is a javascript code above the form, pointing to a .js file. Will have to find that to make the change ?

[Illori]

can you attach your index.template.php file to your next post?

Learning curve for me . So, not in or related to a .js file location. Ahem ...but actually still looks javascript related when I view the page source.

But I can see it in the browser page source but not in the downloaded file so it must be concealed from me by code I don't understand ?

Index.template.php attached .

[pabs11]

From the browser page source

On a fast look through, I didn't spot the form in that file, it may even be that it is not there as such. Could you give us a link to see your forum?
